Awesome Merch!
I love your channel😁
ME 2 !
You have helped guide me for over a year with the care of my lil leo gecko.
That’s awesome. We all have to start somewhere and learn, and hopefully help someone else someday, with what we were taught.

My Reasons leopard geckos make good pets: #1: HAVE YOU SEEN THEIR FACE OMG
THEIR SO ADORABLE HOW CAN YOU NOT LOVE THEM??!??!?!?
I love this comment so relatable 🤣❤️
😂😂 yess! haha
they’re basically smiling all the time.
redangelfish also the r nice pets the are pretty easy compared to chomealeans
Ikr I'm going to maybe get one
My pet leopard gecko is so cool. I call to him and he’ll come to me and crawl up my hand ready to be held. Never knew they were so cool with a personality. His name is chicken little! Thumbs up and cheers from California!
Ha! I wish my big girl would do that. She’s just sits and looks at me lol. It’s like I bother her by existing unless I’m bringing her food.
Mine does the same. His name is Alfred
aw that's so sweet :)
Silverfire 12 lol
Gecko Dude that’s cool. It’s a trip how you can train them like a dog who’ve of thought lol
The people who disliked are just mad because there mom said they can’t get a leopard gecko
Lmao... So true 😂
My mom and dad said i dont need a gecko but im still going to get one anyway
😂😂
😂😂😂
oreo & bubbles facts
I got my leopard gecko last Tuesday. She’s a hypo tangerine and she’s absolutely adorable
Aww nice :D
Leopard Gecko do you have any tips on handling as she’s only a baby and quite skittish
Just don’t squeeze them. I should say this for all ages but especially babies. And don’t handle them to high up because if they fall they will get hurt. After all there ground dwelling geckos. Oh and make sure to always be ready to catch your gecko if it tries to run away they can be quite fast lol.
You’re lucky! I really want a leopard gecko!!!
awww o am thinking of getting one
I’m sitting here holding my leopard gecko he is scratching the screen of my iPad bec he see’s yours. LOL
Aww that’s so cute what’s his name :)
@@keirynic DonoWall
😭 awwe
Gizmo just being the best ambassador for leopard geckos ever in this video
haha yes 😂
My Leo, buckwheat is the sweetest boy ever. He’s so cute and I love him so much. He makes my heart melt and I come home to him every day and tell him how handsome and sweet he is
Cutest name
I absolutely am in love with my leopard gecko and so happy I have her. I almost didn't get one because I don't like bugs but she's totally worth it and I don't mind the feeders(I just don't do crickets)
aw sweet, yeah you get super used to it :D
Try to give a variety because they can get bored & refuse to eat it. I can’t give my older girl because she’s a fatty cuz when I got her she was skinny & gave her mostly horn, wax, & meal worms & now I’m currently feeding her crickets & meal worms once a week.
I dont do crickets either. Partly because they jump and partly because they’re kinda too cute lol
I’m obsessed with your channel! Your amount of dedication to informing people about these lil cuties is amazing. Thank you for helping me, and so many others! ❤️❤️
aw thanks so much 💕
same im going to get a leopard gecko soon and i cant stop watching your videos

Thanks!!!
Thanks. She takes forever to get to the point
They are such awesome pets! I haven’t even had mine for a full year and already we have a great bond. She’s so friendly and genuinely seems to enjoy coming out to be handled. She’s a beautiful hypo tremper albino with a lovely carrot tail and she cost me under $30 (I have a shop that breeds them in house and I got to meet her parents and her sister. They do an amazing job with all their animals and really know their stuff.)
aww so sweet :D i went to a shop recently that breed their own leos and they had bright orange tails too :D
I don’t know why but gizmo looks so wise. Like he could help you with your bills 🤣
haha she's actually my producer, director and financial adviser 😂
My leopard gecko loves to sit on my shoulder and watch your videos 🙂
I got my boyfriend into leopard geckos, and reptiles in general, and a week ago, we found two for rehoming! This past week has been filled with contacting the rehomer, setting up enclosures and LOTS AND LOTS OF RESEARCH. Today I surprised him with a 4-5 page complete leopard gecko guide filled with information from many sources, including you!! So thank you!! We're so excited :)
Their little tongue is the cutest thing on planet earth omg!
I’m getting a Beautiful leopard gecko next week😁 it’s a max snow
Love this channel
aww how exciting! and thank you :D
I hope i do since its going to be my birthday next week
Leopard Gecko thank you so much for the advice and for the heart ❤️
Congrats 🎉👏👍😁
I love how calm Gizmo is while she's just sitting on her hand 😂❤️
I agree with everything you've shared. You're channel is a GREAT asset for gecko owners. TY
aw thank you :D
After weeks of watching dozens of your leopard gecko videos,we finally brought our own home! Thankyou for these as they have made us so much more prepared for our little Huntress!
I saw leopard geckos with scars all crammed into the same viv for sale and I’m so angry
Not mentioning names but it was a certain shop near ems worth and the last words are reptiles and aquaria
so sad :( i have visited quite a few reptile shops around the south of england and have been to this one :( some setups are cool, but the leos are lacking. there were bowls of undusted wax worms and mealworms left in there :(
Wished I could tame mine 😞 I've been trying since May this year and still doesn't enjoy being out but he'll lick my hand and hand feed fine inside viv.
Ah how strange, do you try to handle him regularly? Sometimes people will tell me they can't tame it but they'll only handle it once a week. Whereas I find best results come from holding them a little bit daily.
Every time I watch your videos I fall more in love with your geckos, they have such solid personalities, I think my cat is part gecko because she has hides like a gecko and she actually kinda sploots which is adorable.
aw thank you :D haha cats and leos are very similar.. leos are basically scaly cats lol
Im getting a leopard gecko for my birthday and your videos are helping and unbelievable amount! ive been taking lots and lots of notes and getting prepared for when i get my leopard gecko. :)
I just got my baby leopard gecko last Friday and your videos have helped me with my research before getting her, I really appreciate this a lot!
I love my leoperd geckos because they need calm energy so handeling and caring for them is almost like caring for a rock garden or meditating in that aspect. It is very peaceful and something I genuinely look forward to doing every day!
I have a leopard gecko and he is so cute and his name is get ready for it
Mr. Cookie (I've had him for awhile plz don't judge me?)
OwO
Great video as always! Thanks for all the info :)
thank you! :D
I'm getting my leopard geckos tomorrow. I can't wait and I have been doing research non-stop. Thanks for the video!
I just want to say how glad I am that I found your channel. I thoroughly enjoy watching the videos and I have learned soooo much from you. All of your gecko set ups are amazing! I was excited the first time I saw you have a chohoua (spelling?) gecko. I'm actually planning on getting my first leopard gecko next year, and after that I know I want to get a chohoua. It's kind of funny because I'm a forty-seven year old lady looking at keeping reptiles for the first time. 😊 Anyway keep up the great work and best wishes from Wisconsin USA ❤️.
aw thanks so much Jeanne. They're wonderful animals, good luck with your gecko search 😊
Thank you for making a pros and cons video! It helps me know if I would be a good fit before I start researching more
Watching this with my jack o'lantern leopard gecko whos turning 1 this saturday! Your videos are very helpful.
I got my leopard gecko this September, he's the cutest bold bandit bean in the entire world!
Your channel helped so much when I was doing research about them so I could welcome him with open arms
So thank you so so much!!!! 💛
aww thank you :D
This is awesome advice thank you
I love how in the beginning of this video you provide the best advice anyone has ever given to people trying to own animals SIMPLY by just suggesting GOOGLE. I NEVER understand why people ask other people or pet store or experts THE stupidest questions when they can just simply look it up.
I love this channel, your my FAVORITE RUclipsr. I used to not love my gecko as much until one day I noticed it’s spots. It looked so cool so I started checking it out more. And I loved researching about it and holding it. So thank you for giving me and my gecko a wonderful relationship. -Weston AKA (your best listener for your channel)
aw thank you :D I'm glad you were able to reconnect with your gecko :)
Thank you for making me do the one thing I’ve always wanted. Meat the honest RUclipsr. I’m crying. Thank you Leopard Gecko. Reconnecting with my gecko is helping my depression and watching all the interesting patterns it has. But thank you truly. For not being the RUclipsr that doesn’t check comments. Thank you for letting me care for my gecko the proper way. There is the people that say I love your channel and your geckos. But I really like you. And your geckos. Like I love y’all. Not in a there my fav because of there content, it’s because of what you do. And I love what you where and the way you talk. And how cute and slur my your little friends can be... I just can’t explain the level of happiness I have right now. I was on cloud 4 today, but you put me on cloud 9. Thank you. I legitimately can’t explain my thanks for you. Just thanks for taking time of your day to look at comments. Wish I knew you, like knew knew you, and I just can’t thank you enough. Just. Love you and your little friends.
i love your videos you are helping me and many other Ppl. keep going:)
I just got my leopard gecko yesterday and i got her because i showed my parents both why we should and shouldnt get one. Thank you so much. I love her so much and i cant wait to love her for a long time. ♥️
I love the way you say "gecko"! It brings me a lot of joy!!
you are so awesome i have basically 99 percent of all my leo knowledge from you. you helped me get my beloved leopard gecko who's name is darkstalker and he is so cute. you helped me convince my mom that leopard geckos are awesome pets. thank you SO MUCH your so awesome!!!! keep being great and i hope you make so many more great videos!!
AAAAAAAAAAAA im so early! as a lg owner, i can confirm, they're so nice if you're nice too!
yeah :D :D
I’m getting a leopard gecko on friday! I’ll edit this comment when i get one! i know i’m getting a female and i want one with spots so i can name her freckles ☺️
edit: i forgot about this comment! i got her!! she’s doing amazing and already let’s me hold her! she ate for the first time yesterday (the second day i had her)
Any more updates on Freckles?
@@LunaroseClaire yes!! she’s a year old and he’s super healthy and doing great i love her so much!
Just want to say I've been watching your videos for a few years now, but it wasn't until recently that I got my first leopard gecko. (I raised three crested geckos, though.) If it weren't for your videos, I don't think I would've had the confidence to take in a rescue Leo and give him the best possible enclosure and setup. I did do other research, but I've always appreciated that you go above and beyond for your animals. I don't know why any true animal lover would want to settle for the bare minimum.
My rescue came to me with swollen feet and sores from shedding problems, as well as a calcium deficiency. After a vet visit, I had to give him daily antibiotics and soaks. But all his sheds in my care have been absolutely perfect, and he's doing amazing now. 😊 (I'm in the US, but I managed to get him stocked up on Arcadia supplements, the Deep Heat Projector, and the Shadedweller. I think it's safe to say those really made a difference in his progress!)
I got my two Leo geckos for $15. One albino and one normal. They are the sweetest little babies on earth and I adore them so much! Your channel really helps me know how to handle, care, and house these guys! Have a good day/night!
Just wondering, are they housed together?
I totally love your shirt.
I've had my Leopard Gecko for a little over a year now and My Merlin is the greatest.... I have watched your videos since last October and you have helped me so much with how to take care of him and I thank you for it.
aww thank you :D
@@leopardgeckotalk no thank you .... ❤ your so very welcome. Positive vibes to you and your geckos
My parents might get me a Leo for my birthday in March.... I’ve been wanting to get one for 2 years and I showed them some of ur videos and that has made them (hopefully) change their minds! I’ve done absolutely loads of research around half is mainly from ur channel so just wanted to say thankyou!!
I have researching and learning about leopard geckos for the past 4 months and I am hoping to get one within the next year!
i got my leopard gecko 4 weeks ago and there are the best pets. He is so cool to watch hunting and holding him is mythical
aw awesome, sounds like you two are getting on well :)
Leopard Gecko OMG I GOT RECOGNIZED YESS that made my week lol
I got my leopard gecko today❤️❤️ she is not used to being handled but she has a very sweet personality💋 I’m really thankful I’m her new owner and I’ll make sure she will have a great life❤️❤️
I am in love with my leopard gecko! I have other reptiles (a corn snake, a crested gecko, and a blue tongue skink) i wasn’t sold on them as I thought oh everyone has one. But I found some that needed to be rescued and I had the all the necessary enclosure, enrichment, heating, so I thought why not!!?? I love her so much and can’t imagine life without her. Such great little pets
aww :D thats awesome to hear :)
Hi... I'm from Portugal and I learned all about leopard geckos through your channel and some web research too, I have a female leopard gecko that looks just like your Gizmo. Her name is Kita and I bought her while she was 6 months old in last year December, she's now 81g and 23cm long and so bright and lovable with a big fat tail.
Thank you for enlightening us with all this important information. Keep up the good work 😄
aww sweet! She sounds like she's a healthy big girl like my Ziggy :D Thank you!! :)
i have had my leopard gecko apollo for about a year and a half now and it was the best decision i’ve ever made! he is so sweet and well tempered and i love him so much. your videos were my go to when i was researching leopard gecko care and you’ve helped me a lot. i just wanted to say thank you for all the hard work and effort your put into your videos, they have definitely helped me!
• Lucifer • aw really that’s awesome!!
• Lucifer • omg yes😂
I’ve been watching your videos and talking to my mom about getting one for Christmas. I’ve just fell in love with leopard geckos. I want to name mine Cosmo.
Screw those thumbs down people your just teaching people the responsibility that comes with owning a pet. I hate impulse buyers who usually get rid of their pet in a year, and that's what you were trying to prevent it at least that's what I took from the videos! Your absolutely amazing!
I love the way you talk.
Hi I've been doing research since I was 8 im 11 now I really appreciate your videos thank u so much im pretty sure im going to buy one
I think being informed both why you should or should not buy a pet are equally valid videos. I've always had a soft spot for leopard geckos and am considering buying one soon. Your videos are so well presented and very informative!
thank you :D :D
thank u so much for your channel u helped me get my first leopard gecko
I may be getting a leopard gecko next year so I am doing as much research as possible. I am going to adopt tho. Also thank you for commenting on one of my videos it really means the world to me 😊. Have a great night and keep up the amazing work.
Ah nice :D and no problem :D Thank you!!
I love ur vids
Thank you for making this a video because me and my brothers are trying to convince are parents to buy one
I just got a leopard gecko 2 weeks ago! I followed all your instructions and she ate her first meal in her new enclosure today! Her name is Lizzie like from magic school bus. Keep it up!
ah brilliant!! :D
She’s quite big I adopted her and she’s 8 years old and i have her in a ten gallon should I get a bigger tank? If so how big?
Luca Fourie try and upgrade to a 20 or 20 gallons tank
OMG I haven’t subscribed after watching all these videos I didn’t even notice I’m subscribing for sure
I love your Chanel!!❤️ I have a leopard gecko named gizmo
Thank you :D :D
I am getting a leopard gecko for my class i am so excited !
I'm having a bit of trouble taming my leo but I'm sure we'll get there ❤️ she's my first leo I just got her on the 12th and she's only two months 🥰 I haven't had her super long so I'm sure we'll become good friends
I'm getting a lepord gecko for my b-day!!!! Thank you this channel is so underated...
aw awesome! thank you :)
My leopard gecko kinky crawls into my hand when I put it in the tank! It’s so cute she won’t go to anyone else in the house lol and she’ll give me kisses through the tank glass
aw thats so sweet :)
I have several snakes and lizards and my leopard gecko has by far the most personality, even more so than my bearded dragon! I adore them all but she certainly has a special place in my heart! 💕🦎
aww that's so sweet :)
I like your shirt it’s cute!
Totally binge-watching what it's like to have leopard geckos!! (planning for new gecko baby :) )
Great video as always Rebecca, where do you order your feeder insects from as they’re super cheap?!?
Thank you :) I always get them from Internet Reptile :)
I just got my first leopard gecko a couple days ago! You helped me so much when it came to my years of research. One question that I still have is if it’s okay to give your gecko treats on non-feeding days or not.
Anyway, tysm and amazing video as always :)
Aw thanks :) I tend to leave foods/treats to feeding days, but maybe a wax worm here or there rather than on a feeding day could do.
@@leopardgeckotalk good to know! Thank you :)
Awhhhh he / she is so cutttte when he / she stuck out his tongue 🥰
I got a leopard gecko cause of your video's and BTW I have been doing research for 3 weeks
I really agree when she said do as much research as possible. I know so many people who got pets because they were cute and exotic rather than considering the aspects first. It’s sad to think that so many are mistreated.
HEYY! My Juvenile leopard gecko (that’s I got yesterday) has been sleeping for over 13 ish hours, and its almost 9pm and I put his worms and fresh water in this terrarium, but he just went back to sleep, is there something I should do?
Nice video. I just got my first a week ago and Im on the process of taming right now
awesome, good luck :D
good
vid
I want an albino leapord gecko so bad !! ..leapord geckos are so cute and i cant wait till i can get one!! ...also your videos are great for giving me advice for when i do so keep up the good work!!
awesome! Thank you :)
Im working on getting one, watching a lot of ur vids for info and just wrote a word doc to convince my mom lmao
Gizmo is so cute❤️
I got my leo as a present
Aaa my leopard gecko is 13 too!!! 🥰 I may be getting a crested gecko in the next year or so (not going to get one soon. Because as you said ---research!!!) So I'm excited to watch through all your crested gecko videos again and research
aww awesome!! Crazy to think Gizmo and your gecko hatched out all the way back in 2006 :') they grow up so quickly. Cresties are great too :D
I love leopard geckos so much I already bought an enclosure, just waiting to move into a new appartment in a month where it's allowed to have pets :)
ah exciting!! :)
Leopard gecko the most dangerous thing they can do is kill you with a cuteness overload
I think the vid about cons of owning a leopard gecko is actually really helpful to pets and pet owners because not all people are meant to be pet owners, and more people should be aware of that for the sake of animals & themselves. :)
Where did you get your sliding door tank for the geckos?! LOVE YOUR CHANNEL BTW I’ve been researching about leopard geckos for about 2 years now and I always go to your channel it’s very helpful!💚🦎
I personally would never see myself getting a reptile of any sort. They just don’t really appeal to me and I don’t feel I’d be able to give them the proper care. However, I love watching your videos. :) I find them super interesting. You approach many different topics on reptile care, and I find myself knowing a lot about something I won’t have!
OMG LEOPARD GECKOS R SO FLIPPING CUTE
I’m really excited because my nearest animal shelter just got two Leo’s and I might be able to adopt one! (I already have a Leo)
Nice! Just make sure they’re housed separately :)
I know it might seem discouraging seeing the dislikes but don't phase yourself and your valid opinion just because some people didn't like called off on buying pets that are not suited for them and are incapable of taking care them PROPERLY!!!
Yes I can get a pet from a pet store.. Then what? A good pet owner isn't one where their pet barely survives in bad conditions and surely not one that says my pet doesn't need these stuff, he is perfectly fine. I am glad you did your previous video. Your knowledge and experience is tremendously important 💗💗💗💗💗
Thank you 💕💕
i love your chanel
thank you
We have a very sensitive Leopard Gecko. We got her from someone that did not want it anymore and of course moving it caused stress. We then moved her again within the house and the same thing happened. Now after a year she is quite settled and allows us to handle her. What we did was leave her alone for a while then started handling her slowly in short bursts and now she is quite settled and we are definitely keeping her as another stressful event might set her back with no guaranty she'll recover as she is older now.
Gizmo is absolutely adorable! 🦎
So True
I’m 10 years old and I’m trying to convince my mom to get me Leopard gecko I’ve done so much and I mean months of research (on your channel)
Me too!
By the way, I'm using my mom's account
lol same i stayed up all night writing a report
Question...
I see you have videos on why leapord geckos aren't eating, but my leapord gecko's appetite has seemed to increase? Is he storing food for the winter?? Should i just feed him until he's full? Your videos are SO SO helpful, and i am really thankful. THANK YOU!
I swear when they face sideways, they look like velociraptors from JP and JP world but they're so cute and adorableeeee... 😂😊
love your channel please do one on crested geckos !!!
Thank you!! :) maybe :)
I just love my Leopard Gecko Altair , he's my buddy and pal , he's a sub adult Striped Tremper and I've had him since July of this year , I bought him from a breeder at a reptile exspo , he's so fun and personality amazing , he's been in a state of brumation and only yesterday night came out to say hello , all I can say is I love my Leopard Gecko
aww thats sweet :)
